“All my life I have heard your words. From the music you play to the whispers you don’t intend for me to hear, I hear it all. I am listening loud and oh so clear.”
“Autistics are very much mindful of the world around them. Our senses are very keen. My sight is blurry at times. Lots of light, lots of shapes, lots of beautiful colors. When someone requests that I look at his face, I go into panic mode. My eyes focus on the ground. My heart races. My mind quits working, and I must self-talk my fears away. I promise I can listen while focusing on something else. Autism allows me to listen and looking is not required, I can assure you. Please let me be me.”

The Grade 9 students recently engaged in an Interdisciplinary Leadership Unit with their Branksome Hall Asia Buddies, who visited the Branksome Hall Canada campus from February 2nd-9th. Despite the language barrier and cultural differences, girls from both schools formed strong bonds over the week and were able to learn a lot about each other. As it turned out, Branksome Hall Canada and Branksome Hall Asia students have more in common than the uniform – we discovered that we listen to similar music, and share many of the same hobbies.
Through interactive games and other activities at lunch and after school such as a dance-off, ice-skating in Nathan Phillips Square, cookie decorating, and yoga, we made so many memories, forged special bonds, and shared a lot of laughs. During class time, we studied the issue of public space in Toronto, and how we might incorporate health and wellness into these spaces. We broke down the “problem” and analyzed it in depth in order to be able to identify two separate models, or ways of approaching the problem. From these models, each group of students created their own prototype out of recyclable materials. Three of these prototypes were selected to present to CivicAction, a Toronto based organization that tackles civil issues including public space.
This program was a continuation of the IThink program at the Rotman School of Management which the Grade 8 students undertake in January each year with the Grade 8s from UCC. Overall, the experience enriched our problem solving skills, our understanding of what it means to be a transformational leader, and our collaboration skills. It was such a wonderful opportunity for students from both Branksome Hall Canada and Branksome Hall Asia to spend the week together and I can say on behalf of my grade that we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and that the new friendships we made with the BHA students will transcend the ocean.
